Written Question
Dental Services: Access
Tuesday 5th March 2024

Asked by: George Freeman (Conservative - Mid Norfolk)

Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what progress her Department has made on increasing access to dentists.

Answered by Victoria Atkins - Secretary of State for Health and Social Care

On 7 February, we published our Dentistry Recovery Plan to increase patients’ access to NHS dentistry across the country, including in Norfolk.

On 1 March, one element – the New Patient Premium went live, to increase the number of appointments available.

We will keep the House updated on this and the many other measures set out in the Plan, including our work to reform the dental contract in the longer term.
